This garlic paste is built on a simple, high-quality formula: 65.8% garlic and 19% olive oil, rounded out with sunflower oil, lemon juice, salt, and spices. The high garlic content gives it an intensity and freshness that pre-minced garlic in jars cannot match, while the olive oil base makes it smooth, easy to work with, and ready to use straight from the jar without any peeling, crushing, or chopping. The paste is as versatile as garlic itself. It works as the starting point for aïoli and garlic mayonnaise, stirred into sauces and dressings, rubbed onto meat and fish before roasting, or spread directly onto bread for garlic toast. It is particularly useful where you need evenly distributed garlic flavour without the inconsistency of hand-chopped cloves — cream sauces, vinaigrettes, compound butters, and marinades all benefit from its smooth, even texture. A teaspoon stirred into roasted vegetables, pasta, or mashed potato in the final moments of cooking adds an immediate garlic hit without the bitterness that comes from overcooking raw cloves.
